How does dental bone grafting work?
In the procedure, bone graft material is introduced to the area requiring additional bone. This grafting material can be sourced from your own body, a donor, or created synthetically. As time progresses, the graft integrates with the natural bone, encouraging new growth and fortifying the area.
-
How long does a dental bone graft take to heal?
Healing time for a dental bone graft can vary but typically takes several months. The new bone needs time to integrate with the existing bone and provide a solid foundation for dental implants or other restorative procedures. Regular follow-up appointments will help ensure proper healing and address any concerns.
